They engulf them (eat them)
They attack the germs in our bodies, going out to where the germs are, and they just eat them. And the germs are now gone. That's how the germs are killed in the human body.

∙ 14y agobacteria enter white blood cells through phagocytosis. As a part of the immune system, white blood cells (leukocytes) ingest foreign matter to destroy it. There are seven different types of leukocytes, but the primary attackers of bacteria are the macrophages and the neutrophils.

∙ 11y agoThere are two types of white blood cells: phagocytes and lymphocytes.
The phagocytes trap the bacteria inside them, and then digest them.
The lymphocytes produce antibodies which bind the bacteria until a phagocyte comes and destroys it.
